Not a Kansas resident? No problem!

Every Kansas nursing school admits students who do not live in Kansas. We would love it if you studied here.

And if you live in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, or Wisconsin, you may be eligible for reduced tuition as part of the Midwest Student Exchange Program (MSEP)

How does the MSEP work?

The schools in the MSEP agree to charge students no more than 150% of the in-state resident tuition rate for selected programs with private institutions offering a 10% reduction on their tuition rates. Savings through the MSEP varies depending on the tuition set by the schools, but it typically ranges between $500 and $7,000.

All enrollment decisions are made at the discretion of the receiving campus and the campus may exercise its right to limit participation or set specific admission requirements for the MSEP.

Check with the individual schools to find out if the participate in the MSEP for their nursing program.
